Tires Hankook or Continental
I just put 4x Hankook Kingerys on my 81 240d. 195/70/R14. Decent priced tire that suites SoCal driving. I got about 65k out of these on my rav4 previously.
CONTINENTAL EXTREMECONTACT DWS
Such a better ride for my R55s, plus it lowered me a few mm
Hankook Ventus S1 Evo 3 - that's what I've got and swear by. I've done about 10k miles since putting them on in May and I've got about 6mm of tread left at the front.
I really enjoy Continental Extreme Contact 02, but it’s really only for summer.
I usually run Michelin X-Ice but I gotta say these VC7's are great.
I replaced my BFGoodrich MT T/A tires on my Wrangler with Hankook AT2 Extreme's, and what a difference. I'm 8,000 miles in on the AT2's, and there is zero sign of wear. My wife's mind was blown that our jeep was so much quieter, and we could have a conversation at highway speed without having to yell over the tire noise. These things are practically silent.
The off-road performance is greatly improved. Where the MT's would lose traction on mountain trails, the AT2's keep their grip and keep me moving.
Put some Hankooks on there; so much quieter and more comfortable. They aren’t as confidence-inspiring as the Yokos, but they are so much quieter and more forgiving. Kw/mi dropped to 270 with a mix of aggressive city driving and highway between 75-85mph.
Continental.
Everybody's complaining that they roll like shit. I'm sorry, is this the aero weight weenie sub or the fixie sub? The solution is stronger legs!
I always ride bulletproof tires like these (usually Continental or Schwalbe) around Brooklyn, because otherwise I'd have to change a flat once a month. Waste of time and money.
Got a set of Hankook with 70k miles warranty. After about 35k miles with mainly local suburban driving, the tread wear is almost to the indicator bar. Don't get Hankook.
